Sorry for the lack of posts. I haven't had much to post about and was out of town for a week, but tonight I am headed to see Glenn Beck Unelectable at the movie theater! :) I listen to his radio program everyday at work and he cracks me up, so I'm so excited to see his comedy show!

High School Musical!

So my aunt had extra tickets she ended up not needing so my mom, Steph & I went. I wasn’t expecting it to be that great as the movies were just so, so for me, but I love plays and so figured it could be fun. I ended up loving it! I think part of it was the audience, because these kids were excited! I felt like I was back at an NSYNC concert hearing all the teeny boppers scream, except these weren’t teeny boppers, they were little kids. The kids (and some parents) were dancing in their seats, singing along, totally laughing and just having a great time! It ended up being so much fun and was a really cute show, so if you ever have a chance to see it I totally recommend it and take your kids, they’ll love it!

I've decided to take the plunge

And commit to this in writing! I have decided to do a triathlon. Now before you start thinking there is now way she (that'd be me) can do a triathlon (which would be correct), the one I'm doing isn't until next May. It's also not one of those crazy long ones. A friend's sister did it this last year and it didn't sound impossible and so I told her we needed to do it next year. Marathons have always intrigued me, especially reading about people's experience and made me think about trying one of those, but then I think of what on earth do you do for that many hours while you just run. I'd be bored out of my mind, not to mention all the physical pain. Part of me still wants to become a runner and do the NYC marathon as running through NYC would be awesome, but I dont know that I am ever going to actually be able to convince myself that's a good idea, so for now I am starting small and just going to do a triathlon. To follow suit to Heidi I am blogging about it and so now am committed! I've started a little training for it so far and it's gone fairly well, although my first swim involved a little encounter with a dead frog (eww!) and then last night since it was so late I rode my bike around a small square in my neighborhood about 30 times. I'm hoping that in addition to getting in shape I will also get a nice tan this summer! Wish me luck!

PS - Do you know I have to pay $ to do this??? Seems like you should get paid to put your body through that kind of pain.

A dream come true!

For shoe addicts everywhere there is one brand, or should I say one sole that you dream of owning. Because these shoes generally cost about 3 rent payments then I've never really looked that much into owning a pair, but just dreamt of the day I might get lucky enough to finally get a pair. Well that day has come! Thanks to a steal I just couldn't pass up I finally own a pair of Christian Louboutin (the red sole shoes!) and I absolutely love them! Can you see the joy in my face??? (I also happen to be almost 5'10" in these shoes! :-) )

Now here's a flashback (not of me though!)

I thought I had pics of the LeBaron side of the family on my computer, but I can't find them. I'll try those another day. These are my Grandma & Grandpa Skinner back in the 1930s. Aren't they so cute???

She's a prodigy!

I have no idea how to turn the video and it's really short since I was trying to get a picture too.

Bob!!! I love him!

Well last night I went to Bob Harper's (trainer on the Biggest Loser) book appearance. He is so great in person & I loved getting to listen to him talk and then answer questions. He was so friendly and funny! He's even cuter in person! He's just like you'd imagine and I had a great time! Here are a couple pics from last night. It was really hard to get one of him when he was talking as he kept moving around. Bette Sue from this season also showed up and we got a pic with her.
